There’s not much worse in modern Australia than being branded a “racist”.
Zali Steggall calling Peter Dutton 'racist' over Palestinian refugees misses a bigger discrimination problem
Let’s be real - outright “race-based” supremacism is hardly a thing in today’s Australia.That’s where certain groups show intolerance towards members of other communities.Yet we barely hear a thing about that. If you’re a decent person, nine times out of 10 you’re accepted for who you are.Peter Dutton should not be labelled a racist just because he wants to protect Australians as a far deeper discrimination problem festers away across the country, writes Sherry Sufi.
Israel’s Absentee Property Law meant they couldn’t return to nor reclaim their homes, leaving them in mukhayyams in rundown conditions across surrounding regions.Most of Israel’s neighbours had hoped the newborn state wouldn’t last long and the refugees would be returned.For 38 years, Gaza’s residents lived under Israeli administration, with Jewish settlers moving into the area called Gush Katif.
Yet if granted, such a “right of return” would demographically undermine the Jewish character of Israel.
